Hi Dudley,

you have a very nice collection of brooches there.
I only have 2, DLI & SATC :

Hullo Iain

Many thanks for posting the images of your badges. I have not seen them before. Very nice!! This is a little known area of badge collecting for many people and I have found it quite hard to find South African ones. Rhodesian sweetheart brooches are even more difficult!

I have created an album here on the British ones I have in the collection at http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...p?albumid=1794

Kind regards

Dudley

Hi Dudley and others,
An attractive lot you have, thanks for showing them. Here is my General Service sweetheart, stamped "STERLING SILVER", measures 30mm diameter.
